"For Now"- Avenue Q @ Bryant Park 2007

[TheEmilymolly]

awwww 

[Bradwick1]

When i was a kid puppets used to be over the top edge of a puppet stage with some sort of barrier hiding the performer. get a tall barrier at foot of stage you can walk behind with your puppets. i guess some people would misunderstand that concept and get scared. puppets attatched to people in full view is ventriloquism which this obviously isnt?

get a semi opaque barrier FOR NOW!? :)

great voices all!

[MapleLunii]

I saw this today :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD.

Opening night.

[s900203]

@RFZT It made me feel so happy. Almost got me outta depression really.

[ashlynelizx3]

@wurhaluv thats howie michael smith. hes in the current cast.

[sweetdreams1405]

This song kinda makes me feel sad and happy at the same time. I saw the show in london for the second time in May a week before my dad was taken ill, so this song always reminds me that the bad stuff is only temporary, and it's going to get better.

[laxclimblive15]

These guys are ok but no one beats the original broadway cast. John Tartaglia, Stephanie D'abruzzo, Rick Lyon, Jordan Gelber, Ann Harada, and Jennifer Barnhart will forever be these characters and although people can try, they will never be beaten.

[NickBFilms]

whos the guy whos playing brian in this

[Zepthire]

i saw this live in london last year and in several places i cried but it still makes me happy, at least its a realistic musical

[imZero]

I like this ending to the play. It's not sugar-coated, it's realistic. There is no happily ever after, but you have to work with what you have to make the best of it, and to work around your problems.

[Peachiko]

@imZero That's the main reason I've always liked Avenue Q so much, everyone can really relate to it D: ~ ~ Life goes on, suck it up, you'll make it somehow~

[lovesdanecook]

howie michael smith is the cutest thing. when i saw it, he was princeton/nicky, and christy carlson romano was kate/lucy. :D

it was awesome, i got to meet them. howie is so nice! :P

[homie413]

Wow, WHAT?! OMG! I can't believe she was in Ave Q!! How was she? I can't find any clips with her in it.

[lovesdanecook]

@homie413 sorry for the EXTREME lateness of this comment haha. but she was great! it was so awesome to see her in it, and i had no idea she was going to be until i was in the theatre haha! :)

[fnog9]

Interesting. At first this was the most annoying thing I had ever heard, and it grew on me until I faved it!

[homie413]

Why, because of the voices?

[fnog9]

yes, because of the voices.

[frymahhide1982]

At 2:35, it looks like Gary points to her breasts and than at Princeton's puppeteer. WTF is that about?

[maygirl]

Sex? idk...

[justinp31233]

I wonder what they'll change the "George Bush" line to! Inaugration day is coming soon!

[mooshark77]

i cant believe this is closing i didnt even get to go see it yet

[frymahhide1982]

It says in your profile that you live in the U.S.

It's closing in London, not the U.S. You can still see it, don't worry.

[mooshark77]

oh thank you ... im hopin for it to go on tour cuz new york is a long trip

[frymahhide1982]

It went on tour over a year ago.

[mooshark77]

well i only just started hearing about the show when it was on ace of cakes and i was like omfg i hafta see it ...being a huge broadway fan and all...that sux i missed it on tour that's happened to me a lot lately

[jjjjjjjjj123123123]

over a year ago? i just saw it last month in Detroit.

[frymahhide1982]

The tour STARTED in July 2007, which was over a year ago.

[Happybunyoo]

George Bush! is only for now...

haha i love that line

[frymahhide1982]

I think this is the only Bryant Park performance featuring Jennifer Bernhardt (or however her name is spelled).

[erhalperin]

they are so good at character singing. you can still hear their wonderful voices while they sound all puppety and such

[AerisCloud4ever]

their not allowed to say bad words but they can talk about sex?

[webkinzgal21]

When I saw Avenue Q, when they said George Bush, everyone was cheering

[Neanerbeaner1988]

oh I know, amazing right?! Seeing it in NYC, people just go nuts over that line...wonder what its gonna be now! =X

[webkinzgal21]

BARACK OBAMA!!!!!!!

[wowbadseefun]

I would love for this to come to L.A i really want to see it dose anyone know the closest place to L.A where it is performing?

[piggysmom12]

its coming to la next year in july

[SillyGirl26]

wow this clip makes we wanna buy the cd and also see the play. I really wanna see it, but have ot got the chance. waaaa. I hope i do soon.

[Jenna10227]

Did anyone notice that at 1:10 the chick that plays Christmas Eve kinda gave the dude who plays Brian a "get your hands off me or i'll break them off perv!" kind of hint.

[Domino9592]

Oh yeah! You're right!

[webkinzgal21]

OMG! That's so funny!

[aegelko]

where's trekki, the bears, and lucy?

[mikokat]

Well, Trekkie's busy looking at porn, Lucy's out soliciting sex in the Lower East Side, and the Bears are trying to convice someone to hang themselves.

[aegelko]

oh ok thanks

[clonedstarman]

I agree with you. Trekkie, Lucy, and the Bears are all to busy.

[clonedstarman]

I agree with you. Trekkie, Lucy, and the bears are all to busy. But thanks anyway mikokat.

[mikokat]

You are welcome! If you want to know what's happening on the Avenue, ask me!

[clonedstarman]

Okay! Thanks for the information. And you are a big help.

[clonedstarman]

When are they coming back to Los Angeles?

[mikokat]

"For Now", they don't have a scheduled return to any of the cities. It will be in Portland June or July 2008, and that's the last time they'll closest they'll be to California for the rest of the tour.

[clonedstarman]

Okay thanks. I guess I would have to wait another year for the tour to come back.

[mikokat]

Maybe I'll drive to Portland for it...

[clonedstarman]

Miko, can I ask you a question? Can you please add me me to your friendlist. pls. tha would be great, cuz I'm an avenue Q fan also. Thx!!!!

Fome, Nick

[superlardbucket]

where is Portland in relation to Maryland? I'm an American, so I'm pretty ignorant of the world around me.

Actually, that's a false stereotype. Many Americans are well-rounded, very aware people.

[clonedstarman]

Portland is in oregon.

[clonedstarman]

I have a question. Where can I get the CD of the Avenue Q songs?

[mikokat]

Online, in many CD stores, ebay. Just look around. I purchased mine at Borders Bookstore in San Francisco.

[clonedstarman]

Really I also found it at CD stores, borders bookstore, Ebay (didn't check), online stores, I think in Santa Monica Promena (because I live in west L.A.)Barnes&noble and borders, anywhere I guess.

[PhoenixAngel429]

look under orginal cast recordings at Borders. That's where I found mine

[Jenna10227]

:( i like the old cast better...

[princ3sscute17]

i have a question.... it is legal to copy the play??

I mean.. i ovious that they are doing the exactly thing.. so.. they ask to the real creators of avenue Q if they can do the play??

Can someone explain me?? I've seen too many copies..

[clonedstarman]

I don't think so. I mean people could do the play. But the creator doesn't really care. So yeah I guess so. So go head do the play.

[AshIsOutrageous]

Copy...you mean put the play on in a public theatre?

[buffyfan83]

after george w leaves office, wonder what they'll say? HEH

[drewsadog]

WTF does that comment have anything to do with this post?

[buffyfan83]

Well, lessee umm...the fact that they sing GEORGE BUSH is only for now....man are you that dense? Or did you just not watch the video? I was saying that since George Bush leaves office next year, will they change it to the next president? Really, you made an idiot out of yourself.

[AsianAgentScully]

I'm pretty sure that it can be replaced with any one or two syllable term that can fit with with the song lyrics.

[aegelko]

i think if the next president isn't an asshole they'll have to rewrite the song

[Jenna10227]

lol you're funny. its true though, bush is a total dick.

[hilzsuperduck]

there qiute good!

really good

[vtakng]

i saw it on Broadway.... a few different cast memebers from above^^^ seemed better on Broadway than this...

[theaterismyantidrug]

I saw it in London.

:]]]

[ayeshashasha]

exactly!!!!!! london cast is MUCH better!

[barney0503]

where are the bears, trekkie and lucy?

[actor123456789]

Umm, not sure but i think they didnt want to give the end up b/c something happens to lucy.
